Potayto, potahto...

Thanks for the info. I was not disparaging the card or seller, it is quite a neat item.

Scott, I don't think they were mixed into the regular cards. Among the few I've seen I recall one that was addressed to an arcade owner and mailed like a PC. I'd also expect there to be a lot more survivors if that was the case. Wear could simply be 90 years of existence.
